By Li JizhiUnreguser

BRUSSELS, Nov. 3 (Xinhua) -- Eurozone finance ministers are confident that an agreement will be reached between the Council of the European Union (EU) and the European Parliament on the next seven-year EU budget soon, European Economy Commissioner Paolo Gentiloni said on Tuesday.

"We have solved many of the issues that are put on the table by the parliament, and we are working to solve the others," Gentiloni said at a press conference when asked whether the EU Council was still in time to present its budget for 2021 without a multiannual finance framework in place.
